'''Védren''' is a large continent, south of Evandor and west of Márusúturon, by which it is divided by the (mostly mountainous) isthmus of Tabal. It is mostly situated between the two tropics, and includes large tracts of deserts (in the northeast - the Atoráro ([[Spocian|Spc.]]: ''Aƛał'', the largest Calemerian desert), rainforests (in the southeast), and savannah. Its largest and most important country today is Spocius in the north, which has historically been the largest Védrenian civilization; the Spocianosphere is a commonly recognized cultural area that includes most of northern Védren. | '''Védren''' is a large continent, south of Evandor and west of Márusúturon, by which it is divided by the (mostly mountainous) isthmus of Tabal.

Modern Védren has had more Evandorian influence than Márusúturon, but not to the extent that for example Africa has suffered European colonization. Actual Evandorian control of Védrenian lands has been more limited to coastal lands and not in the whole continent, and Evandorian innovations like in most of the rest of Calémere have been later adopted by local rulers. This has contributed to form the current Védrenian political map, which is divided into more than a hundred countries, most of which quite small and - in many cases - densely populated. | Modern Védren has had more Evandorian influence than Márusúturon, but not to the extent that for example Africa has suffered European colonization.

The Dabuke countries, straddling northeastern Védren and western Márusúturon, are a partial exception, with a recent long (and to various extents current) history of civil wars between the factions of foreign-led oligarchs, constantly exacerbating ethnic and religious tensions in those countries. | ||
